MACHINE GUN KELLY SAYS EMINEM BEEF RUINED HIS ALBUM SALES: While speaking to Interview Magazine, Machine Gun Kelly blamed his beef with Eminem for the poor record sales of his fourth album Hotel Diablo. The album sold 39,000 in its first week out. He said, “As a hip-hop album, it’s flawless front to back, and also a hint at the evolution of how I went into a pop-punk album. But it was coming off the tail-end of that infamous beef with Eminem. So no one wanted to give it the time of day.” He added, “What I did in the beef was exactly what it should be, but that project wasn’t welcomed. The next album came from already feeling like I’d counted out, so I didn’t even care what the public was going to think.”
